Abstract
THIS little book does not belie the author's international reputation-the old adage, “Small bulk but guid gear”, sums it up tersely, containing as it does matter to please and interest both the general reader and the serious student of astronomy. The monograph contains five chapters, namely: generalities; transits of Mercury; geography of Mercury or hermography, and rotation of the planet; atmosphere and mists of Mercury; the physical conditions of the planet; and a table of contents.
La planète Mercure et la rotation des satellites: étude basée sur les résultats obtenus avec la grande lunette de l'Observatoire de Meudon.
Par E. -M. Antoniadi. Pp. v + 76 + 3 plates. (Paris: Gauthier-Villars, 1934.) 18 francs.
